Re-Post: Does This Seriously Count as Sports News?

This post was originally put on the now defunct "What Was I Thinking?" blog on August 20, 2008. Reposted here for your enjoyment.


With all the hullabaloo that is the Olympics, why has FOX Sports denigrated to writing about whether Jessica Simpson or Giselle is the first lady of football? Beyond that, why has MSN chosen to feature this story as the sports clip on their home page? Is there nothing better going on in the world of sports?
